A Study of an Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) Candidate Vaccine, mRNA-1189 in Healthy Adults 18 to 30 Years of Age

The main objective of this trial is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of mRNA-1189 after intradermal and intramuscular delivery.

R-MVST Cells for Treatment of Viral Infections in Children and Young Adults

The primary objective is to determine the safety and feasibility of administering R-MVST cells to patients with refractory viral reactivation and/or symptomatic disease caused by Epstein Barr Virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), adenovirus (ADV) or BK virus. R-MVST cells will be generated on-demand from the closest partially human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched (minimum haploidentical) healthy donors or from the original allo-transplant donor if available. The investigator will closely monitor the recipients for potential toxicities including graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) post-infusion. Secondary objectives are to determine the effect of R-MVST infusion on viral load, possible recovery of antiviral immunity post-infusion and for evidence of clinical responses and overall survival. Recipients will be monitored for secondary graft failure at day 28 post R-MVST infusion.

Exploratory Study of EBV DNA Titre Clearance Whilst on Proton Beam Therapy

How does plasma Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) DNA level change during definitive radiation therapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in the teenage and young adult cohort and does it correlate with outcomes?

Graves' Disease Induced by Epstein-Barr Virus Lytic Reactivation

Previous studies have proved that the lytic reactivation of latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was significantly associated with the onset of Graves'disease (GD), however, the morbidity of GD and recurrence rate of hyperthyroidism after antithyroid drugs treatment due to lytic reactivation of EBV is not understood. We will recruit patients with newly diagnosed GD and recurrence of hyperthyroidism after antithyroid drugs treatment. In order to confirm lytic reactivation of EBV, the number of EBV DNA copies，mRNA and protein expression of immediate-early, early and late lytic EBV genes，EBV +TRAb+cells will be tested. The proportion of lytic reactivation of EBV in newly diagnosed GD and recurrence of hyperthyroidism was evaluated.

Segmental Resection Combined With DEP Regimen for EBV-HLH Patients With Intestinal Involvement

EBV-HLH is a rare disease with high mortality, especially for those with intestinal involvement. In order to reduce disease burden and improve survival of these patients, we conduct a prospective observational study to explore the efficacy and safety of segmental resection combined with the DEP regimen.

L-DEP Regimen Combined With PD-1 Antibody as Induction Therapy for Epstein-Barr Virus-positive LA-HLH

The efficacy and safety of L-DEP (PEG-aspargase, liposomal doxorubicin, etoposide, and methylprednisolone) regimen combined with PD-1 Antibody an induction therapy for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive lymphoma-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
